The Sound and the Fury
William Faulkner, 1929
FAULKNER, William (1897-1962). The Sound and the Fury. New York: Jonathan Cape and Harrison Smith, 1929.

First edition, in the first state dust jacket. Faulkner's great masterpiece began as a short story "about a girl and her brothers," but gradually grew into "this radically different work, this immense leap in technique that would contribute to one critic's calling him 'the greatest innovator in the history of American fiction'" (Blotner 212). Petersen A6.2a.

Octavo. Original cloth (trifle soiling at spine ends); pictorial dust jacket (spine panel with minor chipping at ends and sunning); custom box.
